Crack the champagne

Expressing my gratitude.

I want to say I a huge thank-you to everyone that stops by my blog. Today, I reached a huge milestone - 200 followers! And I know there are many more of you that pop in every now and then to take a peak.

I hope that my excitement for agriculture (and the occasional gorgeous turquoise find) has been contagious. I really do believe that along with harvest, calving, keeping records, feeding, marketing and all the other things that are part of our daily routine on our farms and ranchers that agvocating is going to have to be added to that list if we want to stay in business.

There are too many consumers that are too far removed from agriculture. Many of them want to learn about where their food comes, but they don't know where to turn. If we aren't there to educate and guide them, they could end up down the wrong road. A road that HSUS and anti-agriculture groups would love to see them on.

I hope that this blog will one day be apart of some bigger plans. In the meantime keep on reading, and thank-you.

About Me

These are just a few of the stories that make up the life of an ag girl. I have a passion for agriculture, and want to see farmers remain on the land, raising food for all of us. You'll also get a dash of cattle life from around the country as I travel for work, and some commentary on my hectic life. I love photography, video production, K-State (yes I bleed purple), the livestock industry and have bounced from Alberta, to Kansas, to Missouri, to Iowa. Stay tuned.
